Employment & Labor

Operators in the energy industry are not immune from the problems affecting employers everywhere. Indeed, the energy industry can present some unique and serious issues. These include:

  • Restrictive agreements affecting the ability to attract and/or keep talented employees.
  • Efforts by organized labor to establish representational rights in this largely unorganized workforce.
  • Problems arising from the multi-employer worksite.
  • Occupational safety and health issues.
  • Wage and hour problems.
  • Compliance with a host of federal and state regulations of the workplace.

Babst Calland’s multidisciplinary approach to providing services to the energy industry includes an experienced team to focus on these issues.
